Brayan Rocchio

Brayan Rocchio played a key role in the Cleveland Guardians' 7-0 victory over the Texas Rangers, going 2-for-4 with two runs scored, one RBI, and a stolen base.

This performance could be a sign of turning things around for Rocchio, who has struggled with a modest .212 batting average over the season. His ability to contribute in multiple categories, particularly with runs and stolen bases, adds a layer of value for fantasy managers in need of speed and runs. However, his lack of power and low batting average might limit his appeal to deeper leagues or as a streaming option against favorable matchups.

Brayan Rocchio is expected to see the “bulk” of the playing time at shortstop, per Guardians’ manager Stephen Vogt.

Rocchio slashed .270/.308/.459 during 13 games this spring. The 23-year-old is one of the organization’s top prospects and will likely be given every opportunity to prove himself this season.

The Cleveland Guardians have recalled prospect Brayan Rocchio after placing Jose Ramirez on the bereavement list on Tuesday.

The 22-year-old shortstop isn't in Tuesday's starting lineup but should make his big-league debut in short order. He has just one homer in 36 games at Triple-A this season but is hitting .338 with 10 steals, an .882 OPS, and a tiny 12.8% K% in that time.
